The Navigators’ GPS

Posted on November 26, 2009 | Filed Under News, People, Uncategorized

We purchased a car when we came to Singapore. One of the best decisions I’ve ever made was to have a GPS installed in the car! Many times in the last few months I’ve found myself wanting to go to a particular place… a certain church, a sports field to pick up one of my children, even home, and not knowing how to get there. Not a problem with the GPS, though. I simply plug in the address and it tells me how to get to where I want to go.

The Navigators have a GPS as well… something that tells us how to get to where we want to go. It is our Calling:

To advance the Gospel of Jesus and his Kingdom into the nations through spiritual generations of labourers living and discipling among the lost.

The three underlined words are of particular importance. 

 

 

 

 

Advance
The Navigators are not about maintaining the status quo. We are about advancing the Gospel and the Kingdom. Jesus is our role model. Knowing that traveling to Jerusalem would result in his certain death, he nevertheless “resolutely set out” for the city. (Luke 9:51)

David is also a wonderful model of advancement. When faced with an adversary three-metre-tall, covered with bronze armor and carrying a huge spear, David, “ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him.” (1 Samuel 17:48)

Navigators “resolutely set out” and “run quickly to the battle.”

Labourers
The Navigators are not just about us reaching the lost and making disciples. We are about equipping others to reach the lost and make disciples.

About a year ago one of our staff women, Lee Yin, taught one of our polytechnic girls the 2 Timothy 2:2 principle of investing in a faithful few. The poly student began to pray for three younger pre-believing poly girls by name. Recently one of the younger girls called Lee Yin and asked if she could get together to talk bout faith issues. Lee Yin could easily have met with the younger girl alone, but instead quickly called the older student and arranged for the three of them to have lunch. At lunch the older girl led the younger girl to the Lord, and is now following her up.

Navigators help others reach and disciple others.

Lost
Labourers have one purpose…to work in the harvest… sowing,cultivating and reaping. (Matthew 9:37, 38)  This was Jesus’ purpose. “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.” (Luke 19:10)

The Navigators are not about one way of reaching the lost. We are constantly on the look out for what works best in any particular culture and at any particular time, recognising that sometimes several different methods work well.

Bottom line… we agree with C.S. Lewis who wrote, “The Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became Man for no other purpose.”

Navigator are about labourers for the lost. - by Doug Erdmann, National Director

OMG*, Desire!

Posted on November 6, 2009 | Filed Under Discipleship, Evangelism, Ministries, News

What do you desire most in life? And what does God have to do with our desires?

Sign up now for the Navteen’s annual training camp!
7 - 11 December 2009
Christ Church Secondary School
20 Woodlands Drive 17 Singapore 737924

 

“OMG (Only My God), Desire! is a camp that aims to help teens grow in their desire for God in two ways. First, by knowing how much God desires for us, and that we can and should respond in kind by loving God. Second, by learning how to deal with various temptations and things that the world has that distract us from God. Prayerfully, we hope that teens will learn how sustain their desire for God even after the camp itself is over.” - Cliffton Tay Xiang Rui
